Snap-on Inc., innovator, manufacturer and marketer of tools, diagnostic and service equipment, and information solutions, is sponsoring the exclusive tour and seminar, which are limited to the first 120 Auto TECH expo Seminar Passport sign-ups. The morning event April 3 at the Snap-on campus includes a tour of the auto-technology lab; the Snap-on Museum, showing memorabilia dating to the company’s founding in 1920; its prototyping and 3D modeling facility; and its training center.

Guests also will attend a special technical seminar by Jim Moritz, Snap-on’s national training manager. “Breaking Good: Vehicle Sensors as a Diagnostic Tool” will tell you how to read oxygen, zirconia, titanium, lambda and other sensor technologies through his useful case studies on engine and drivability diagnostics. The seminar will range from the basics of oxygen-sensor operation to tuning engine performance using the exhaust sensors as a diagnostic tool.

Lunch will follow, along with a final stop at the Snap-on gift shop.
